They probably don't know that one woman's efforts helped bring about legislative actions to protect the environment, such as the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency and the passage of the Clean Water Act and the Safe Drinking Water Act.
But even those who are familiar with Rachel Carson's work as a marine biologist and zoologist and author of "Silent Spring" -- the book that likely caused the ban of the pesticide DDT in the U.S. in 1972 -- probably don't know the personal trials she persevered through as her words prompted a nation into action.
"A Sense of Wonder," a one-woman play written and performed by Kaiulani Lee, tells the story of Carson's life as her book was being catapulted into the spotlight. Lee used Carson's diaries and letters as well as help provided by Carson's biographer to recreate this period in Carson's life with the hopes that the play would help inform the younger generations and inspire environmental awareness.
Melonie Shipman, the environmental education coordinator for the Alaska National Maritime Wildlife Refuge, said the play likely would be of interest not only to those already tuned into the environmental world, but to anyone who enjoys good theater.
"It's extremely well done," she said. "It's kind of like going for your basic meal and being surprised with a five-course dinner."
Shipman, who saw the play earlier this year, said the story touches on the drama of the publication of "Silent Spring." At that time, Carson was battling cancer and serving as a foster parent to her nephew. When "Silent Spring" turned her professional quest into a national debate, Carson had to deal with her newfound role in the spotlight.
"She was an extremely private person," Shipman said. "She was totally blown away by the response."
"A Sense of Wonder" has been performed more than 200 times in the U.S., Canada and Europe during the last nine years. Lee's theatrical background includes 20 years on stage starring in numerous plays both on and off Broadway.
She guest starred in many television series, such as "Law and Order," and appeared in several films, including "The World According to Garp."
The play is part of a series of events to be presented by the refuge in the coming year in celebration of the 100th anniversary of the national wildlife refuge system as well as the opening of the new Alaska National Maritime Visitor Center in Homer. It is sponsored by the Pratt Museum, the refuge and KBBI.
Carey James can be reached at email@example.com.
A play presented this Wednesday will strive to tell both stories.
"A Sense of Wonder," theatrical tribute to Rachel Carson, author of "Silent Spring."

Fehr on CBA negotiations: "Sept. 15 is not a magic date unless someone wants to make it so"
Jul 31, 2012, 7:44 PM EDT
While the early stages of CBA negotiations have been met with some pessimism, NHLPA boss Donald Fehr isn't worried about a potential timeline to get a deal done.
In fact, there might not be a timeline at all.
"All I've said is Sept. 15 is not a magic date unless someone wants to make it so," Fehr told the Globe and Mail about the current CBA expiration date. "There's nothing that happens on Sept. 15 if we don't have an agreement, provided nobody says we're going to go on strike or says we're going to lock the doors."
Fehr has stated in the past that, despite the fact the current agreement expires midway through September, 2012-13 play may go on without a new deal — so long as both sides are willing to keep negotiating.
"There's nothing magic about Sept. 15. The law is that if you don't have a new agreement, and as long as both sides are willing to keep negotiating, you can continue to play under the terms of the old one until you reach an agreement," Fehr said back in late June. "All I know is that in baseball, there were any number of occasions in which we played while the parties were continuing to negotiate."
It's unclear if the NHL and its owners are of the same mindset.
Speaking of the NHL, commissioner Gary Bettman reportedly submitted 76,000 pages of financial information to the NHLPA on Monday evening. It's the latest in what both sides are calling "amicable" and "constructive" negotiations thus far.
"We're doing our best to comply with all of their requests regardless of whether we think they are relevant," Bettman said.

76,000 pages? Is it the NHLPA or US Congress?
- barkar942 - Jul 31, 2012 at 9:52 PM
It is the NHL. It is big business. Congress would have 760,000 pages!
- hockeydon10 - Aug 1, 2012 at 9:14 AM
76000 pages for the financials of 30 teams plus the league itself.
2451 pages per entity isn't really that amazing when you consider everything each of those entities has to account for.

Cowichan Bay Fire Chief Retires
I met Chief Ferguson once or twice, during multi-station training seminars. Congratulations on Time Served and a well EARNED retirement, Chief.
Ferguson retiring as fire chief at Cowichan Bay department
By Jeff BellJanuary 3, 2009 3:05 AM
Dave Ferguson will continue as deputy commissioner.
His plan was to go quietly, but his proud family made sure he didn't get away without some public recognition. Daughter Cathy King said the department has been "absolutely huge" in her family's life and a true passion for her father, who works in a similar field with his day job at the Office of the Fire Commissioner in Victoria.
Ferguson, 62, will continue in his role there as deputy commissioner.
"He's been getting his firehall fix at work and at play," King laughed.
Everyone in the Cowichan Bay department, including the chief, is a volunteer, Ferguson said.
"It really does vary, but somebody suggested that I probably put in an average of 20 additional hours a week related to the firehall."
Being the child of a firefighter has been special, King said.
"I've had 35 additional parents since I was eight. They're not only firefighters, it's very family-oriented. In a true sense, it's a firehall family."
Her own family connection to the firehall remains strong thanks to her brother, Cam, a longtime firefighter who now becomes deputy chief, and her husband, Mike, who has just passed the 10-year mark with the department.
"It's kind of a neat scenario going on for our family right now," King said.
Ferguson said he is "blessed" that both his son and son-in-law are part of the team. His 10-year-old grandson is eager to join, as well.
Stepping back from the department will give him more time to spend with his wife, Ferguson said.
His last day as chief was Wednesday.
"I think there's others who have earned the opportunity to assume the leadership role. I've thoroughly enjoyed it, but there comes a time when it's time to move on."
Ken Bulcock has moved up from deputy chief to succeed Ferguson.

A Struggling Mum Blogs About Food
Last year at Eat.Drink.Blog, the Australian food blogger conference, I met Melbourne-based Sandra Reynolds of The $120 Dollar Food Challenge, who held the audience spellbound as she recounted how a dire situation led to food blogging and a cookbook deal. Recently, we spoke further about her career and her struggle to support herself:
Q. In February 2010, you left your job as a public servant and had to figure out how to feed yourself and your two teenage children.
A. I went to the Salvation Army and they gave me two $60 food vouchers designed to last two weeks. And it started from there.
I went on Facebook to complain to my friends that I only had $60 to feed my family. My friends started asking what I could cook. I sent them recipes, and then someone said, '91You could start a blog.'
Q. How did you know what to do?
A. I'd read a couple. A friend of mine had me write a few posts for a food blog she was running, but it was just a hobby.
Q. You were posting quite a lot at the beginning.
A. For the first six months I posted two meals a day. It was nuts. Now my budget is $120 a week, in line with rising food costs. On average, families of four spend about $200 to $250 a week on food in Australia, so it's still a substantial reduction.
At the beginning I didn't write an introduction to my recipes, but now there's two to three paragraphs and I'm down to posting once every two days, three to four times per week. That's a reasonable schedule for me.
Q. Sounds like a lot. And you test the recipes every time?
A. Oh yes. I tend to work two weeks in advance. That gives me plenty of opportunity to retest them if they don't work.
All my recipes have to pass the Dubbo test. It's the name of a town in Central New South Wales. You live in a one-supermarket town in rural Australia. Can you buy the ingredients you need to complete one of my recipes? There's no freshly-caught anchovies and white truffles.
Q. How do you afford all the ingredients for testing recipes?
A. It may seem counter intuitive, but a well-stocked pantry is my best friend. Things like herbs and spices can flavor ground beef, for example, and it will take me from one recipe to another for very little money.
I still shop at markets and low-cost supermarkets, and I still plan my menus according to seasonal produce. I cook for one now because my children are 19 and 21 and have moved out. I try to photograph small plates of food even if the recipe says it serves four.
Q. How did the word get out about your blog?
A. I was a reader of a local website called Mammamia, and mentioned to Mia Freedman that I had started my blog. I posted the address in the comments, and it immediately gathered blog traffic. Mia encouraged me, mentored me and helped me get an agent for my book.
But other than that, it was word of mouth for four months. Then I got interviewed on a Current Affairs program and got 75,000 hits the following day. Then Penguin Books called, offering me a book deal. Just like that. My agent said it was a very strong offer, a 'stonkingly good deal.' She's very English.
It's three years later. It's still so other worldly and I'm very keen to tell people it's not normally how it happens.
Q. You had quite an impact on people who don't have much money but want to eat well.
A. I didn't realize it when I started the blog, but I clearly filled a gap. If you want to go to farmer's market, and eat local, sustainable, ethically raised products, it's going to cost. There are thousands of people in Australia who want to be engaged but they don't know how and they don't have the budget to do so.
I said, '91Yeah, you can.' Maybe it was my writing style or my utilization of social media, but I have a following now that encourages people to do more with less. People tell me how I've taught them not just how to budget but how to cook.
Q. That's a big deal.
A. Yes it is, when people are struggling.
Q. Are you still struggling?
A. Yes. I don't like to say that too much. I take ownership of the decisions I've made, but I've come so far I don't want to go back.
Q. How do you make a living?
A. I do freelance work, I assist companies with their social media, I do part-time work as an admin and I clean houses. It's patchy and it's iffy but I do it.
Q. Now you're working on another book?
A. Yes. I'm writing the manuscript and the book proposal together. I don't expect to get the same offer as I got the first time around. I'm having second book syndrome: lots of procrastination and self-doubt. But I don't want to be known as the person who wrote only one book.
Q. Do other food bloggers understand your challenges?
A. I'm not sure. They don't get what a struggle it is to do on your own, without a partner or support. In the last two years I've moved eight times. The book was written and tested in five kitchens. No cookbook author generally does a cookbook like that.
A lot of people would have given up by now, and understandably so. It takes a little bit of madness to do it. I love being creative and I had no idea how much of it I had in reserve. It's quite surprising to go through life kind of asleep and then wake up. There was this parallel life waiting for me. It's scary. People in mainstream media have heavily criticized me because they thought I was an irresponsible mother for quitting my job.
Perhaps they didn't have the wherewithal to leave their jobs and do this life. It's a transitory lifestyle and I've had to give up a lot. I don't recommend it. But the creative life is so fulfilling I can't imagine doing anything else.

Great interview thanks Dianne. Sandra's session at Eat Drink Blog was quite an eye-opener for many and also laid the real facts about having a book published right on the line. She's hard worker and a great lady – and her recipes are always very practical.
Thank you for saying so, Amanda. I was so impressed with Sandra when I met her at the conference. And thanks for making it possible for me to do so.
As a personal friend of Sandra's, thank you for doing this interview. I think it's important for people to get an idea of what she's been through and all because she WANTS to help others. Previous interviews/articles haven't been so kind and the reaction was just feral from some armchair critics. Thank you Dianne.
Wow. I'm sorry to read this, Raven. Sandra didn't mention that. I don't think it's my job as an interviewer to impose a point of view. It's better to just let the story come out so people can make up their own minds.
I think one thing that I have learned from your blog is that cookbook deal is not the end all be all, but more of the icing on the cake when we are speaking about sustainable income.Maybe this is a grass is always greener kind of thing when people first hear her story.
Yes, that must have been when she really made it. Now it is a few years later and the money is probably gone and it probably wasn't enough to live on for very long anyway. Pretty tough. There was definitely a glam, high-profile period. That must be why she's working on book No. 2. Can't say I blame her.
Very inspiring and realistic at the same time, thank you so much! I am also single and trying to break away from the daily grind/time clock to follow my passion. This interview helps to put things into perspective.
I hope it makes you want to dive into blogging, but with caveats.
Thank you everyone for your kind comments. I hope I brought some perspective without cruelling any blogging or publishing ambitions you might have. I have never regretted my original decision to start writing – it's brought me so much more than I could have dreamed of – and the joy and assistance it's given my readers has benefitted far more lives than anything I've done as a public service drone. I'm rich beyond measure, she says with tongue in cheek.
Nice. Now if only the "rich beyond measure" extended to incoming checks.
interesting interview. I hadn't heard about Sandra. I guess she became so well known because she was experiencing the hardships that many were/are. She's very honest. That is quite refreshing.
Yes. Who knows what goes on behind all that "perfect food and perfect life" kind of writing that is so prevalent in food blogs, eh?
That "perfect food and perfect life" kind of writing is something I struggle with quite a lot in writing my blog, Dianne. No one really wants to read about the really ugly parts, since they're, well, ugly (unless you can make them funny, which is usually welcome), but the prettiest parts can be so misleading. My solution has been, essentially, not to talk about my life really much at all as I loathe blogs that make readers feel somehow inadequate. And I stick mostly to comfort food and nostalgic recipes since they're accessible'97and I think mostly what readers need/want from a gluten free blog. Cheers to Sandra for telling it like it is, and making it work.
I think people do want to read about the ugly parts, Nicole, if you can write them well. Humor helps. Certainly there is no point in making readers feel inadequate, if you want them to come back. But there is also no law that you have to be as honest as Sandra is. She doesn't do it all the time. Most of her posts are straightforward recipes about cooking on a budget.
Kudos to you for taking a new path and doing well. I'm doing a blog that is out of the ordinary too. I appreciate the step of faith you took.
Great interview, as food blogs become more and more overly polished and professional it's inspiring to have authentic voices like Sandra's keeping it real.
Yes! She doesn't sugar coat it, which I appreciate.
Hi, Dianne, the link for the $120 food challenge up top is broken.
Hi Cristin, actually it works, but it looks like Sandra's site is down for the moment. I'll email her.
Hello Cristin,
My apologies for the inconvenience, the site is now up and running again after a couple of backend issues.
Sandra x
It's like reading about someone who lives on the different side of the planet. Thanks Dianne for sharing the story of someone who has a different take altogether:)
Well I suppose, Ishsita, that she does live on the other side of the planet, since you're in Dubai and she's in Australia! But yes, she has a different take from the rest of us. She is willing to sacrifice a lot to keep writing.
I think the best blogs are those that serve a purpose and Sandra's does in so many ways. Respect to her and her fortitude and the way she is working herself out of what she thought was an impossible situation. We learn from each other and as she and so many say – there are more people trying to get by in Sandra's situation than we would like to admit and that need help, advice, support and encouragement. Thank you, Dianne, for letting us know about her and her blog and for sharing her struggles and her strength.
You're most welcome, Jamie. It is a difficult situation and some people have not been kind to her about it. Yes, she needs advice, support and encouragement — and cash!
This hit really close to home and I am grateful to you, Dianne, for introducing me to Sandra's blog:)
Hello Lana, lovely to hear from you. You have had the courage to blog about this topic as well, and I respect you for it. You two should get to know each other.
Great interview, Dianne. Sandra's story is so inspiring but it's also grounded in reality, too. It's why she was such an obvious choice to speak at Eat Drink Blog and I was so glad when she agreed to share her story with us. Sandra is so down to earth and humble, too, and she really believes in giving back.
This is very Inspiring and realistic.Cookbook is very helpful from the Sandra's blog to the singles
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.
This interview hit so close to home with me that I cried. I have empathy for Ms Sandra as I have walked in her shoes for the last five and a half years so I know exactly what it feels like. I started my little blog as a way to keep my sanity or not.. I bake to keep my mind occupied when my body cannot. It is truly inspirational. I cook every recipe that I post on my blog. I didn't find out until lately that some people don't do that. I was shocked to say the least. I don't have a lot of fancy ingredients but I bake from my heart and I season everything with a lot of love. Since June of 2008 I have been on disability and when you live on less than eleven hundred dollars a month you learn to be very cautious with what money you do have. I always have flour and sugar with spices and can make almost anything out of them. I was a cardiac nurse making very good money most of my life and to lose everything was a hard lesson to swallow. In the course of the worse days of my life I went through a divorce too. Now I live alone with my dog Gordo and have started my little blog. I know that good days are ahead of me no matter what. I truly believe that. My saving grace is that I don't have children to feed. Thank you so much for this inspiring and thoughtful interview. It has mean't the world to me.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it, Bea. I suspect a lot of my readers couldn't relate to Sandra's story, but she strikes me as courageous.
Best of luck to you. I hope your blog gives you joy — and maybe some distraction.

Hey Guys
I'm now trying to install Mountain Lion to my HP Pavilion DV7 for 3 days. But it's just not working!!
First of all I tried it with ##### from this guide:http://thetechable.com/easiest-way-to-install-mountain-lion-on-any-pc-how-to/
With this one I first got this error:
dcbtable_version is 0x4
nvidia rom patching failed
So I googled and tried a lot of things, with bootflags: -v -x I was able to get it further, it showed me a lot of things til it gets to a stop with following message:
System uptime in Nanoseconds: 4449494631030
So I tried with more bootflags like : PCIRootUID=0 (or 1 tried both) GraphicsEnabler=No (or Yes tried both) npci=0x3000
Still I always get the same error.
Then I tried another How-To :http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/280756-guide-the-all-in-one-guide-to-vanilla-os-x-mountain-lion-chameleon-dsdt-for-beginners/
This one gets the exact same error as the ##### one, the only difference is that with this one I don't get any Image until the Error occurs.
My System:
HP Pavilion DV7 Laptop
CPU: Core i7 3610QM
Graphics: NVidia GeForce GT630M
I really searched for hours and hours and I would be happy if anyone could help me!!
Thanks a lot.

OK if you followed the tutorial and everything...this is just my idea... have you tried a distro like iAtkos ML2?? Just to see if it boots? Because if it does, it means theres something wrong with #####...and if it does not... then most likely its your hardware...
Posted 17 February 2013 - 02:26 PM
No I haven't tried any distros. I'd like to get it running with this because I spent 20.- for the ML.

MzScheme provides a module system for managing the scope of variable and syntax definitions, and for directing compilation. Module declarations can appear only at the top level. The space of module names is separate from the space of top-level variable and syntax names.
A module
declaration consists of the name for the module,
the name of a module to supply an initial set of syntax and variable
bindings, and a module body:
(module module-identifier initial-required-module-name body-datum ···)
A module encapsulates syntax definitions to be used in expanding the
body of the module, as well as expressions and definitions to be
evaluated when the module is executed. When a syntax identifier is
exported with provide
(as described in section 5.2),
its transformer can be used during the expansion of an importing
module; when a variable identifier is exported, its value can be used
(but not assigned with set!
) during the execution of an
importing module.
A module named mzscheme
is built in, and it exports the
procedures and syntactic forms described in R5RS and this
manual. The
module supplies the initial syntax and
variable bindings for a typical module.mzscheme
(module hello-world ; the module namemzscheme
; initial syntax and variable bindings ; for the module body ; the module body (display
"Hello world!") (newline
In general, the initial import serves as a kind of "language"
declaration. By initially importing a module other than
, a module can be defined in terms of a commonly-used
variant of Scheme that contains more than the MzScheme built-in
syntax and procedures, or a variant of Scheme that contains fewer
constructs. The initial import might even omit syntax for declaring
additional imports. For example, section 12.5 shows an
example module that defines a mzscheme
5.1 Module Expansion and Execution
When a module declaration is evaluated, the module's body is
syntax-expanded and compiled, but not executed. The body is executed
only when the module is explicitly invoked, via a require
expression at the top level, or a call to
When a module is invoked, its body definitions and expressions are
evaluated. First, however, the definitions and expressions are
evaluated for each module imported (via require
) by the
invoked module. The import-initialization rule applies up the chain
of modules, so that every module used (directly or indirectly) by the
invoked module is executed before any module that uses its exports. A
module can only import from previously declared modules, so the
module-import relationship is acyclic.
Every module is executed at most once in response to an invocation, regardless of the number of times it is imported into other modules. Every top-level invocation executes only the modules needed by the invocation that have not been executed by previous invocations.
(module never-used ; unused modulemzscheme
"This is never printed") (newline
)) (module hello-world-printer ; module used byhello-world2
(define (print-hello-world) (display
"Hello world!") (newline
)) (display
"printer ready") (newline
) (provide print-hello-world)) ; export (module hello-world2mzscheme
; initial import (require hello-world-printer) ; additional import (print-hello-world)) (require hello-world2) ; => prints"printer ready"
, then"Hello world!"
Separating module declarations from module executions benefits compilation in the presence of expressive syntax transformers, as explained in section 12.3.4.
5.2 Module Bodies
In general, the format of a module body depends on the initial
import. Since the
module defines the procedures and
syntactic forms described in R5RS and this manual, the
s of a module using
as its initial
import must conform to the usual MzScheme top-level grammar.mzscheme
The require
form is used both to invoke a module at the
top level, and to import syntax and variables into a module.
(require require-spec ···) require-spec is one of module-name (only module-name identifier ···) (prefix prefix-identifier module-name) (all-except module-name identifier ···) (prefix-all-except prefix-identifier module-name identifier ···) (rename module-name local-identifier exported-identifier)
The module-name
form imports all exported identifiers from the
named module.
The (
form imports only the listed identifiers from the named module.
The only
form imports all identifiers from the named module, but locally
prefixes each identifier with prefix
The (
form imports all identifiers from the named module, except for the
listed identifiers.
The all-except
form combines the prefix-all-except
and all-except
forms. Finally,
the (
imports rename
from module-name
, binding it
locally to identifier
The provide
form (legal only within a module declaration)
exports syntax and variable bindings from the current module for use
by other modules. The exported identifiers must be either defined or
imported in the module, but the export of an identifier may precede
its definition or import.
(provide provide-spec ···) provide-spec is one of identifier (rename local-identifier export-identifier) (struct struct-identifier (field-identifier ···)) (all-from module-name) (all-from-except module-name identifier ···) (all-defined) (all-defined-except identifier ···) (prefix-all-defined prefix-identifier) (prefix-all-defined-except prefix-identifier identifier ···) (protect provide-spec ···)
The identifier
form exports the (imported or defined) identifier
from the module.
The (
form exports
from the module with the external name
; other modules importing from this one will
see export-identifier
instead of local-identifier
The (
form exports the names that
···))(define-struct struct-identifier (field-identifier ···))
The (
form exports all of the identifiers imported from the named module,
using their local names.
The all-from
form is similar, except
that the listed imported identifiers are not exported.
The all-from-except
form exports
all of the identifiers defined (not imported) in the module.
The all-defined
form is similar, except that the listed
defined identifiers are not exported.
The all-defined-except
forms are like prefix-all-defined-except
and all-defined-except
, but prefix-identifier
is prefixed onto each defined identifier for its external name.
The (
form is like the sequence of individual protect
but the provided identifiers are protected (see section 9.4);
the provide-spec
s must not contain another protect
an all-from
form, or an all-from-except
form, and they
must not name any identifier that is imported into the providing
module, instead of defined within the module.
The scope of all imported identifiers covers the entire module body,
as does the scope of any identifier defined within the module body.
See section 12.3.5 for additional information concerning
macro-generated definitions, require
and provide
declarations. An identifier
can be
defined by a definition or import at most once, except than
an identifier
can be imported multiple times if each import is
from the same module. All exports must be unique. A module body
cannot contain free variables. A module is not permitted to mutate
an imported variable with set!
. However, mutations to an
exported variable performed by its defining module are visible to
modules that import the variable.
At syntax-expansion time, expressions and definitions within a module
are partially expanded, just enough to determine whether the
expression is a definition, syntax definition, import, export, or a
non-definition. If a partially expanded expression is a syntax
definition, the syntax transformer is immediately evaluated and the
syntax name is available for expanding successive expressions. Import
expressions are treated similarly, so that imported syntax is
available for expansion following its import. (The ordering of syntax
definitions does not affect the scope of the syntax names; a
transformer for A
can produce expressions containing
, while the transformer for B
produces expressions
containing A
, regardless of the order of declarations for
and B
. However, a syntactic form that produces
syntax definitions must be defined before it is used.) The
form at the top level for a module body works like
at the top level, so that the sub-expressions are
flattened out into the module's body.
At run time, expressions and definitions are evaluated in order as they appear within the module. Accessing a (non-syntax) identifier before it is initialized signals a run-time error, just like accessing an undefined global variable.
(module amzscheme
(provide x) (define x 1)) (module bmzscheme
(provide f (rename x y)) (define x 2) (define (f) (set! x 7))) (module cmzscheme
(require (prefix a. a) (prefix b. b)) (b.f) (display
(+ a.x b.y)) (newline
)) (require c) ; => executesc
, prints8
5.3 Modules and Macros
Macros defined with syntax-rules
follow the rules specified
in R5RS regarding the binding and free references in the macro
template. In particular, the template of an exported macro may refer
to an identifier defined in the module or imported into the module;
uses of the macro in other modules expand to references of the
identifier defined or imported at the macro-definition site, as
opposed to the use site. Uses of a macro in a module must not expand
to a set!
assignment of an identifier from any other module
(including the module that defines the macro).
(module amzscheme
(provide xm) (define y 2) (define-syntax xm ; a macro that expands toy
(syntax-rules () [(xm) y]))) (module bmzscheme
(require a) (printf
"~a~n" (xm))) (require b) ; => prints2
For further information about syntax definitions, see section 12.3.4. See section 12.6.5 for information on extracting details about an expanded or compiled module declaration. See section 9.4 for information on how unexported and protected identifiers in a macro expansion are constrained to their macro-introduced contexts.
5.4 Module Paths
In practice, the modules composing a program are rarely declared
together in a single file. Multiple module-declaring files can be
loaded in sequence with
, but modules that are intended as
libraries have complex interdependencies; constructing an appropriate
sequence of load
expressions -- one that loads each module
declaration exactly once and before all of its uses -- can be
difficult and tedious. Worse, even though module declarations prevent
collisions among syntax and variable names, module names themselves
can collide.load
To solve these problems, a module-name
can describe a path to a
module source file, which is resolved by the current module
name resolver. The default module name resolver loads the source for
a given module path the first time that the source is referenced. To
avoid module name collisions, the module in the referenced file is
assigned a name that identifies its source file.
A module path resolved by the standard resolver can take any of four forms:
unix-relative-path-string (file path-string) (lib filename-string collection-string ···) (planet . datum) path
When a module name is a string,
, it is interpreted as a path relative to the source of the containing module (as determined by
). Regardless of the platform running MzScheme, the path is always parsed as a Unix-format path: / is the path delimiter (multiple adjacent / are treated as a single delimiter), .. accesses the parent directory, and . accesses the current directory. To avoid portability problems, the path elements are further constrained to contain only alpha-numeric characters plus -, _, ., and space, and the path may not be empty or contain a leading or trailing slash.current-directory
When a module name has the form
, thenfile
is interpreted as a file path using the current platform's path conventions. Ifpath-string
is a relative path, it is resolved relative to the source of the containing module (as determined by
When a module name has the form
, it specifies a collection-based library; see Chapter 16 for more information about libraries and collections.lib
···)When a module name has the form
, it is passed to the PLaneT resolver as described in section 5.4.1.planet
)Since path values (see section 11.3.1) cannot be written as literal syntax, a
never appears inrequire
forms. However, an absolute path value may be passed todynamic-require
, and it is treated in the same way as afile
A source file that is referenced by a module path must contain a single module declaration. The name of the declared module must match the source's filename, minus its suffix.
Different module paths can access the same module, but for the
purposes of provide
declarations using all-from
, source module paths are compared
syntactically (instead of comparing resolved module names).
5.4.1 Module Name Resolver
In general, the module name resolver is invoked by MzScheme when a
is not an identifier. The grammar of non-symbolic
module names is determined by the module name resolver. The module
name resolver, in turn, is determined by the
parameter (see also
section 126.96.36.199). The resolver is a function
that takes one, three, and four arguments:
When given one argument, it is a symbol for a module that is already loaded. Such a call to the module name resolver is a notification that the corresponding module does not need to be loaded (for the current namespace, or any other namespace that shared the module registry). The procedure result is ignored.
When given three argument, the first is an arbitrary value for the module path, a symbol for the source module's name, and a syntax object or
. The procedure result must be a symbol for the resolved name.The four-argument case is the same as the three-argument case, but with a boolean argument that can be
to request resolving a name without loading the module (if it is not already loaded).
Except for (planet . datum)
paths (which are handled as
described below), the standard module name resolver creates a module
identifier as the expanded, simplified, case-normalized, and
de-suffixed path of the file designated by the module path. (See
section 11.3 for details on platform-specific path handling.)
To better support dynamic-require
, the standard module name
resolver accepts a path object (see section 11.3.1) and treats it
like a file
module path.
The standard module name resolver keeps a per-registry table of
loaded module identifiers (where the registry is obtained from a
namespace; see Chapter 8). If the resolved identifier is
not in the table, and #f
is not provided as the module name
resolver's fourth argument, then the identifier is put into the table
and the corresponding file is loaded with a variant of
that passes the expected module name to
the load handler.load/use-compiled
While loading a file, the standard resolver sets the
parameter, so that the name of
any module declared in the loaded file is given a prefix. This
mechanism enables the resolver to avoid module name collisions. The
resolver sets the prefix to the resolved module name, minus the
de-suffixed file name. It also loads the file by calling the load
handler or load extension handler with the name of the expected
module (see section 5.8).current-module-name-prefix
Module loading is supressed (i.e., #f
is supplied as a
fourth argument to the module name resolver) when resolving module
paths in syntax objects (see section 12.2). When a syntax object
is manipulated, the current namespace might not match the original
namespace for the syntax object, and the module should not
necessarily be loaded in the current namespace.
The current module name resolver is called with a single argument by
to notify the resolver that a
module was attached to the current namespace (and should not be
loaded in the future for the namespace's registry). No other MzScheme
operation invokes the module name resolver with a single argument,
but other tools (such as DrScheme) might call this resolver in this mode
to avoid redundant module loads.
When the default module name resolver is given a module path of the
form (planet . datum)
as its first argument, it provides
all of the resolver arguments to the PLaneT resolver. If the
PLaneT resolver has not yet been loaded, it is loaded in the
initial namespace by requiring planet-module-name-resolver
from (lib "resolver.ss" "planet")
. Thereafter, the
PLaneT resolver is called for every one-argument call to the
default module name resolver, in addition to calls for handle
(planet . datum)
5.4.2 Module Names and Compilation
When syntax-expanding or compiling a module
MzScheme resolves module names for imports (since some imported
identifier may have syntax bindings), but it also preserves the
module path name. Consequently, a compiled module can be moved to
another filesystem, where the module name resolver can resolve
inter-module references among compiled code.
5.5 Dynamic Module Access
module-path-v provided-symbol
invokes the module specified by module-path-v
in the current
namespace's registry if it is not yet invoked. If module-path-v
is not a symbol, the current module name resolver may load a module
declaration to resolve it. For example, the default module-name
resolver accepts a path value as module-path-v
. The path is not
resolved with respect to any other module, even if the current
namespace corresponds to a module body.
If provided-symbol
is #f
, then the result is
void. Otherwise, when provided-symbol
is a symbol, the
value of the module's export with the given name is returned. If the
module has no such exported variable or if the variable is protected
(see section 9.4), the exn:fail:contract
exception is raised. The
expansion-time portion of the module is not executed.
If provided-symbol
is void, then the module is partially
invoked, where its expansion-time expressions are evaluated, but not
its normal expressions (though the module may have been invoked
previously in the current namespace's registry). The result is
module-path-v provided-symbol-or-#f
is similar to
, except that it accesses a value from an
expansion-time module instance (the one that could be used by
transformers in expanding top-level expressions in the current
namespace). As with dynamic-require
, the module
name resolver may load a module declaration to resolve
if it is not a symbol.
5.6 Re-declaring Modules
When a module is re-declared in a namespace whose registry already
contains a declaration of the module (see Chapter 8),, the
new declaration's syntax and variable definitions replace and extend
the old declarations. If a variable in the old declaration has no
counterpart in the new declaration, it continues to exist, but becomes
inaccessible to newly compiled code. In other words, a module name in
a particular registry maps to a namespace containing the module body's
definitions; see also module->namespace
section 8.3.
If a module is invoked before it is re-declared, each re-declaration of the module is immediately invoked. The immediate invocation is necessary to keep the module-specific namespace consistent with the module declaration.
When a module re-declaration implies invocation, the invocation can
fail at the definition of a binding that was constant in the original
module (where any definition without a set!
within the
module counts as a constant definition); preventing re-definition
protects potential optimizations (for the original declaration) that
rely on constant bindings. Set the
parameter (see
section 7.9) to #f
to disable optimizations that
rely on constant bindings and to allow unrestrcted re-definition of
module bindings. To enable re-definition, the
parameter must be set
before the original declaration of the module.
In addition to the constraint on constant definitions, a module can
be redeclared only when the current code inspector -- as determined
by the
parameter (see
section 184.108.40.206) -- controls the invocation of the
module in the current namespace's registry. If the current code
inspector does not control the invocation at the time of a
re-declaration attempt, the current-code-inspector
exception is raised.
5.7 Built-in Modules
The built-in
module is implemented by several
primitive modules whose names start with mzscheme
. In general,
module names starting with #%
are reserved for use by
MzScheme and embedding applications. The built-in modules are
declared in the initial namespace's registry via
, so they cannot be re-declared and
their private namespaces are not available via
5.8 Modules and Load Handlers
The second argument to a load handler or load extension handler
indicates whether the load is expected (and required) to produce a
module declaration. If the second argument is #f
, the file
is loaded normally, otherwise the argument will be a symbol and the
file must be checked specially before it is loaded.
When the second argument to the local handler is a symbol, the handler
is responsible for ensuring that the file-to-load actually contains a
declaration (possibly compiled); if not, it must
raise an exception without evaluating the declaration. The handler
must also raise an exn:fail
exception if the name in the
module declaration is not the same as the symbol argument to the
handler (before applying any prefix in
Furthermore, while reading the file and expanding the module declaration, the load handler must set reader parameter values (see section 184.108.40.206) to the following states:
#t) (read-square-bracket-as-paren
#t) (read-curly-brace-as-paren
#t) (read-accept-box
#t) (read-accept-compiled
#t) (read-accept-bar-quote
#t) (read-accept-graph
#t) (read-decimal-as-inexact
#t) (read-accept-dot
#t) (read-accept-quasiquote
#t) (read-accept-reader
These states are the same as the normal defaults, except that
compiled-code reading is enabled. Note that a module body can be made
case sensitive by prefixing the module with #cs
section 11.2.4).
Finally, before compiling or evaluating a module declaration from
source, the handler must replace a leading module
with an identifier that is bound to the module
export of
MzScheme. Evaluating the expression will then produce a module
declaration, regardless of the binding of module
in the
current namespace.
Separate compilation of module
declarations introduces the
possibility of import cycles when the module declarations are
executed. The exn:fail
exception is raised when such a cycle is detected.

05 Jan 2012 - 24 Jan 2012 \ My fourth Contiki so far and I feel the tour was misrepresented- our group was completely full, and while I was prepared to stay in a hostel and the surf village, I wasn't prepared to be sleeping on broken cots in "fancy" hotels with giant cockroaches running around everywhere- for two solid weeks. If we weren't in rooms with a single bed, a double bed, a broken fold-out couch and a broken cot that was smelly, we were in rickety bunk beds and felt like they would break. I will note here that we informed the front desk of each hotel of the issues, and none of them were resolved- in fact, when we asked for a new cot, they brough us new towels. And when we told them about the bugs, they said that's just how things are. We did get to see some awesome sights, and while the optionals were expensive, they were also really fun. If you want to see the East coast of Oz, this tour is an option, but for the money I'd suggest renting a van and heading out with some friends, or even on your own. Every town we went to had a hostel, in fact, we went to the hostels even if we weren't staying in them. That way, you can choose to stay in the cool places (Byron Bay) and skip the boring ones.

September's "Zozobra" event is really, really interesting. I'd say any time in the fall, since it's not as crowded and the whole place smells like delicious roasted green chiles. The weather can be anywhere from the 30s to the 60s, but it's never bitter cold. A small fire in your adobe is more than enough warmth that time of year. Christmas is also really nice: they put up farolitos (think paper lunch bags with candles in them) on the rooftops. Summer is the most popular time. July 4th weekend is hot and crowded.

Well it all depends on what you plan on doing. If you want to ski or snowboard, I would recommend going sometime in December or January. September is a good time to go if you want to beat the high season and high costs of hotels. But, if money isn't a problem for you, August would be a good time to visit Santa Fe's Indian Market (http://www.swaia.org/), held on the third weekend of August every year. If you plan on going in August, I suggest you book your accommodations immediately!

Ranging Guild
this wiki
Also called | Archery Guild |
Location | East of Hemenster |
Members Only? | Yes |
No. of Stores/Banks | 4 stores |
Required level | 40 Ranged |
The Ranging Guild is located just east of Hemenster and north of Ardougne. It is for members only, and 40 Ranged is required (can be boosted) for a player to enter. Inside the guild is a minigame and several shops to visit. There is also a tannery here, but it is not very practical because of its distance from a bank. A combat bracelet can be used to teleport directly outside the Ranging Guild and is the fastest method of getting there.

[show]The MinigameEdit
Human Pincushion? Edit
This combat minigame requires a bow of any type and players attack the Tower Archers on the other platforms.
To start this minigame, climb up the ladder in the very centre of the guild.
There are four levels of difficulty, and the archers are aggressive and will attack players regardless of their combat level. Protect from Missiles prayer is highly recommended; this minigame is unsafe and players will lose items if they die.
Since the platforms are inaccessible, arrows shot can only be retrieved with Telekinetic Grab. The arrows shot here can also retrieved if the player has an ava's attractor, ava's accumulator, or ava's alerter equipped.
Players also stand a chance to pick up arrows shot by the Tower Archers. The arrows that may be received range in quality from iron to adamant.
- The north tower is the easiest and contains three level 14 Tower Archers. They shoot iron arrows and wear standard leather armour, standard coifs, and use oak shieldbows.
- The east tower contains three level 28 Tower Archers. They shoot steel arrows, wear standard leather with hardleather bodies and coifs, and use willow shieldbows.
- The south tower contains three level 42 Tower Archers. They shoot mithril arrows, wear studded leather, and use maple shieldbows.
- The west tower is the most difficult one and contains three level 56 Tower Archers. They shoot adamant arrows, wear green dragonhide armour with standard coifs, and wield yew shieldbows.
It is advised to turn auto-retaliate off while playing this minigame. Depending on the player's Ranged level, the tower advisors will tell the player which tower is best for the player to use. The advisor's recommendations are according to level, in increments of 10; for example, a level 40 ranger will be recommended the level 20 Tower Archers; a level 50 ranger will be recommended the level 40 Archers, and so on.
Players attempting to do the medium Seers' Village Tasks should note that oak, willow, maple, yew, and magic shieldbows will not work - only the most basic shieldbow will. Also, once a tower is "recommended," the archers from the other towers disappear. Only the ones from the "recommended" tower will remain. Therefore, when attempting to kill one Archer from each tower, do not talk to the advisors (if you do so by mistake, simply go down the ladder and then climb back up).
Archery competitionEdit
This minigame is called archery competition. In it, players can shoot targets and earn archery tickets, which can be used to buy rewards. The cost is 200 coins per game, including the entrance fee and the cost of the ten bronze arrows required to play the game.
Players are required to provide their own bow and may use the bronze arrows provided by the judge. Note: Players are not allowed to use arrows other than bronze. A player may equip 1,000 bronze arrows and play the minigame 100 times without the need to equip the arrows.
Each time a player fires at the target, they will hit at one of the following places:
- Missed: 0 points = 0 exp
- Black: 10 points = 5 exp
- Blue: 20 points = 10 exp
- Red: 30 points = 15 exp
- Yellow: 50 points = 25 exp
- Bulls-Eye: 100 points = 50 exp
Any type of bow that can fire bronze arrows can be used. The tickets are given after completing the game (10 shots). Players can either speak to the Competition Judge or fire again at the target to get tickets. The number of tickets received is equivalent to the number of points received divided by 10.
Where you click on the target does not affect where the arrow hits the target, but your accuracy (and thus your score) is affected by the quality of your equipment, whether you are wearing armour, and your ranged level.
The type of attack does not apply.
The Ticket Merchant at the ticket shop sells:
Reward | Ticket Cost | Grand Exchange Reward | GP/Ticket |
30 Barbed bolt tips | 114 tickets | 1,710 | 15 |
Studded body | 51 tickets | 313 | 6.14 |
Green d'hide body | 856 tickets | 4,369 | 5.1 |
20 Adamant javelins | 292 tickets | 1,280 | 4.38 |
Coif | 12 tickets | 59 | 4.92 |
50 Rune arrows | 1,020 tickets | 7,600 | 7.45 |
This minigame can be used to gain between 10k-60k Ranged experience per hour, but NO Constitution experience. It will be profitable when buying rune arrows with the tickets as long as 250 points (25 tickets) are gained per game.
Note: Sacred clay ranged coifs obtained from the Stealing Creation minigame cannot be used to earn twice the amount of experience during this minigame, but the hati paws DO work to earn twice the amount of experience.
Multiplying the amount of tickets you have earned by 5, will give you the amount of exp earned.
Note: Logging out during the minigame does NOT cause you to have to restart.
Aaron's Archery AppendagesEdit

Dargaud's Bows and ArrowsEdit
Dargaud sells arrow shafts, arrows and arrowheads up to and including runite.
Authentic Throwing WeaponsEdit
The Tribal Weapons Salesman sells javelins and throwing axes up to rune.
Ranging Guild Ticket ExchangeEdit
The Ticket Merchant will trade in your archery tickets for various items.
- Getting 1,000 tickets at the Ranging Guild is one of the medium Seers' Village Tasks.
- This is also a great place to obtain cheap arrows. Simply wear armour that has a high ranged defence, and bring food. Stand in one spot, but do not retaliate. Let the archers attack you, and pick up their ammunition. The only cost incurred is the cost of the food you use, if any. The use of defensive abilities can help prolong your stay.
- It is possible to use a dwarf multicannon on the south and north towers if you set it up next to the tower advisors in front of the door.
- Sometimes, when a player kills 2 archers, the instructors say the tower is defeated.
- Although the dark bow only fires 1 arrow if you use it in the Archery Competition, you still hear the sound of 2 arrows firing.
- Zanik appears here after The Chosen Commander. She rants about how she dislikes the archers here because they don't consider crossbows, like the one she wields, to be "real" bows. She wants to set the record in the archery competition, to prove that they are wrong .
- The Ranging Guild used to be the place where players could buy a fletching cape of accomplishment, but it was later moved because some players had 99 Fletching but did not have the Ranged requirement to enter the guild.
- Aside from rune arrows being a stackable item, two inventory spaces must be open to exchange tickets.
- The Ranging Guild is unique, in that the "tiles", which are squares that the ground is made up of that the game is built on, are turned 45 degrees. This means that, where tiles are usually aligned north-south and east-west, in the guild they are northeast-southwest and northwest-southeast.

Alleged sexual, physical and negligent abuse at a Lubbock County home where a couple — Wonda and Dave Dixon — were raising 10 adopted children have been revealed through court records.
Affidavits filed with the 137th District Court say Dave and Wonda Dixon ignored their 12-year-old adopted daughter's disturbing behavior and punished her by withholding food and water and ordering her siblings to hit her.
"If she would not throw her food over the fence and feed the dogs when she is angry she would not lose weight," Wonda Dixon is quoted as saying by a child abuse investigator.
Dave Dixon said the 12-year-old girl would urinate and defecate on herself as the family ate, court documents said. As a result, she would be sent outside to eat.
The couple — who are in jail — have denied any wrongdoing.
A-J Media does not disclose the name of victims of child abuse.
The investigation
The girl was taken to University Medical Center on Aug. 21 at the request of a Child Protective Services investigator because of her emaciated condition, according to the affidavit.
Child Protective Services specialist Rosa Garcia described the 12-year-old girl as being "unsteady, and appears to walk like she is about to break." The girl's spine and ribs were visible through her shirt, according to Garcia.
She weighed 57 pounds and a UMC doctor said her condition could have been fatal if it went untreated.
"The department feels that any child left in the care of the Dixons would be unsafe," Garcia wrote in an affidavit. "The department believes there is a lot more going on in the home, but we will not get a clear picture of what that is until the children's are removed."
On Aug. 23, an emergency order was signed granting temporary managing conservatorship for the girl because of a lack of physical and medical care. A week later, another emergency order was signed and the other children were removed from the Dixons' home.
The Dixons are in custody at the Lubbock County Detention Center facing charges of injury to a child, resulting in serious bodily injury. The crime is a first-degree felony, and a conviction is punishable by a sentence of five to 99 years, or a life sentence.
Their bond was set at $150,000 each.
A Lubbock County grand jury handed down sealed indictments Tuesday with the charges. It was unsealed Wednesday after the couple was arrested.
According to the affidavit, the Child Protective Services division of the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services has received reports of abuse concerning the Dixons in the past.
Garcia wrote, "Adoptive parents, Wonda and Dave, are very good about covering things up and have taught (the children) not to disclose any information to anyone."
As a result, previous complaints were ruled out and closed.
During August interviews with investigators, the children refused to be audio recorded and did not allege any abuse. They also said they did not want to leave the Dixons.
School personnel had concerns about the girl and contacted the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services.
Teachers found the girl stealing food and eating out of trash cans, according to the affidavit.
After the allegations were made, the Dixons withdrew the girl from Laura Bush Middle School last school year.
Lubbock-Cooper Independent School District spokeswoman Jo Ellen Henderson said, "As per state law and board policy, anyone who suspects that a child has been or may be abused or neglected has a legal responsibility for reporting the suspected abuse or neglect to law enforcement or to Child Protective Services."
Henderson did not comment on the Dixon case, but said district employees must submit a report within 48 hours after hearing or seeing situations or evidence that give rise to suspicion.
